The Meeting
Set in a Harlem hotel room in 1965, the play brings these towering figures together for an intense, intimate, and deeply human conversation about justice, strategy, and the future of Black America.
Through sharp dialogue and emotional depth, the play explores the philosophical divide between King’s commitment to nonviolent resistance and Malcolm X’s belief in self‐defense and Black empowerment. As the two men challenge, provoke, and ultimately reveal their shared hopes for equality, audiences are invited to reflect on the complexities of leadership, the cost of progress, and the enduring struggle for civil rights.
Powerful, thought‐provoking, and resonant, The Meeting offers a rare and compelling look at what might have happened if these two icons had truly sat down face to face, mind to mind, and heart to heart.
